      <image:caption>Photo by Bedelia13 on Wikimedia Commons [Creative Commons] The Lake Highlands area covers a large portion of northeast Dallas. It borders the cities of Garland and Richardson and provides quick access to the parks and trails around White Rock Lake. House prices in Lake Highlands can vary widely. Homes listed for $1 million or more began to appear when the Texas real estate market started heating up in 2020. The median sale price rose to $489,000 by the end of 2022. House flippers might be responsible for much of this trend. At the same time, modest single-family homes from the 1960s and ‘70s still abound.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>One of the best neighborhoods for fix and flip investments in the DFW area is affectionately known as “Poly”, located southeast of downtown. The neighborhood derives its name from Texas Wesleyan University, which began in 1890 as Polytechnic College. Like many “inner city” areas, Poly was solidly middle class for much of the 20th century but experienced an economic downturn beginning in the 1960s and ‘70s. It is now seeing efforts at revitalization. Poly and surrounding neighborhoods have been one of the busiest areas in the state for house flipping in recent years. It features midcentury homes with a median sale price of around $260,000. The median price has more than doubled in less than three years, rising from less than $100,000 in 2020.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Highland Park sits adjacent to Denver Heights to the east and south. Its growth has not been quite as explosive as Denver Heights, with the median home price rising 3.2% year-over-year to $226,000 in October 2022. Its proximity to downtown San Antonio makes it an appealing location for many families and has promoted steady growth over the years.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Moving away from central San Antonio, the nearby town of New Braunfels is also experiencing significant growth. The U.S. Census Bureau estimated that it was the fifth-fastest-growing city in the country during the year ending in July 2021. By then, the town’s population had reached 98,857. The median home price rose 12.6% year-over-year, reaching $450,000 in October 2022. New Braunfels sits near the edge of the Edwards Plateau, also known as the Texas Hill Country. It features numerous opportunities for outdoor activities. The Schlitterbahn water park was the largest in Texas until its counterpart, Schlitterbahn Galveston, opened in 2006.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Who We Are | Capstone Capital Partners - Ray Walter</image:title>
      <image:caption>CEO and Founder Ray Walter grew up in Orange County, California, and learned about real estate investing from his family at an early age as he watched his father save every penny he could to purchase investment property. In the early 90’s his family discovered attractive real estate opportunities in central Texas. Eventually, this passion for real estate moved Ray and his entire family to the Austin area that same decade. Before founding Capstone Capital Partners in 2012, Ray started out with conventional mortgage lending in 1998 and eventually became a Licensed Texas Mortgage Broker for a period of time. Over time Ray moved out of the conventional lending space altogether and focused primarily on Private Lending (his passion) and helping other local private lending companies with their origination process.  In 2007, Ray founded Capstone Servicing Corp, a servicing company that services private loans on real estate. Capstone Servicing has serviced more than $200M in private loans since 2007. Through many hardship lessons, especially during the credit crisis of 2008, Ray has learned the value of staying prudent while maintaining a relational approach to lending by focusing on creating positive lasting relationships with his clients to create a win-win scenario on every transaction. Ray has been in the mortgage lending business for over 24 years and enjoys his passion of lending. Ray and his wife, Kayla, live in the Orange County, California with their three children.</image:caption>
